thanks for the correction, Mike. It was listed as a new product on the website with availability in Jan when first saw it. My woodpecker top has the opening centered in the table, so I haven't run...

Woodpeckers announced plans for a micro adjust for their superfence and RF3 router fences back in the summer of 2012. It's been a long time coming, but was finally released this January. ...

Just a small point. The tiger maple in question as actually classed as soft maple, so it has the approximate hardness of cherry. I'm counting on the polyurethane for some extra abrasion resistance.

I took a big plunge today and ordered 700 sq ft of tiger maple strip flooring from a mill in SE Pennsylvania (Hearne and Hearne). They will belt sand it to 180, so it should not require sanding in...

I have one of the Grizzly green five drawer ball-bearing cabinets. It seems comparable to Craftsman's top of the line and much better than their cheapo model. No complaints here.

I had the 'misfortune' of a Woodcraft opening just two miles from my home. My car knows the way!

Tom:

The Veritas is $89.00 and a beautiful tool that works well right out of the box. If saving up for it and delaying your purchase for a while is an option, I think you'd enjoy this plane for...

A bonus of the TurboIII (in addition to greater capacity) is that it can accept standard ShopVac-style accessories with a simple adaptor. The quiet motor is the major attraction of all the Feins, of...

Ed,

Thanks, that was excellent!

I'm curious whether anyone has experience yet with this new plane. I like the Veritas #4 1/2 smoother and low angle block I've used. This one is similar in construction to the #4 1/2 but 18...

I want to thank everyone for the generous responses. Quite an outpouring of great ideas and enthusiastic choices. I thank you all!

Our family is heading to London for a week of vacation. I'm interested in whether any UK (or other) posters can suggest some WW high points in the greater London area. Classic limewood carvings by...

Jay, can you give me a pointer to your review?
It didn't turn up in my search.


Thanks

Jay,

Thanks, I'll find your review while the Pond is still operational. These two saws seem to occupy the same 'sweet-spot' for price and features.

I'm in the market for my first bandsaw, with a budget limit of about 1 kilobuck. A minimax 16 would be lovely, but more expensive than I can justify. I'm interested in veneer making and cutting...

I want to add to the chorus that Sawmill creek looks promising indeed. The Pond has been practically a virtual apprenticeship. What superb help I've gotten! If this online community develops along...
